- After a couple of days on Christmas Islands it's time for the second leg of the Indian Ocean crossing. 550 nm towards the marvelous turquoise waters of Cocos Keeling Islands
I’m really enjoying your videos, they have a great mix of coverage of boat performance, scenic viewing, yacht behaviour in different conditions, etc. I especially love seeing the approach to places I’ve only read about. My experience covers 20 yrs of yacht deliveries around the coast of Australia. The Outremer55 certainly is a fast cruiser; she really eats up the miles ! !
Thank you SO much for taking the time and effort to produce and share these amazing videos. We can all vicariously enjoy your travels and adventures with you. That wind sailing looks to be as much fun as you can have with your clothes on!!! Very impressive.
another breathtakingly beautiful part of planet earth, thanks so muchfor sharing
Really good to see Nina back on board. Beautiful Lady with a great personality.

Great View. looking fresh. i like crab.
🤣
Thanks for the effort that goes into producing these sublimely beautiful and informative films.
You mentioned having the waypoints of the safe routing into the anchorage. Did you get those as a file from harbormaster and plug them into chart plotter?
Also for spinnaker wrap did you consider loosening the rig and using a spare halyard in place of the jib/forestay to drop it and unwind the wrapped sail on deck? Maybe too risky, would need no wind.
We got the waypoint during the GLYWO rally briefing and double checked them with the boats that were already there
And yes loosening the rig crossed our minds but we didn’t dare taking the risk in this middle of nowhere
@@CatGreatcircle makes sense! thanks for the insight.
😃👍👍👍❤
Cheers dudes.
my wife and I, we watch your videos with great pleasure and interest - since month we discuss what the red lines are for, which are tied to the lower shrouds?
Just to break the resonance of the wind in the shrouds
What make are the head sets you’re using are you happy with the sound quality in the wind
We got them from Hollyland and they work fine
Great video as usual. Love the lovely clear water. i was just on a Lagoon 42 and we lost an engine due to issue with the engine overheating and had to dock at a marina with one engine. i was thinking about how you guys managed it when you lost your rudder.
One rudder and/or one engine is not really an issue as long as you have speed. For low speed manoeuvres you might have to anticipate a bit more
Exactly. We were spinning in circles at the marina when we slowed down by the marina dock. We had to get someone with a bigger boat to push us into the dock.
Awesome 👍🍻what month did you do the passage from Indonesia to cocos ?
